Introducing peanut butter?

Question

I haven’t given my LO peanut butter yet, and I was just wondering how other Moms did this? Can I just mix some in Oatmeal? How much? And what other allergen foods should I also be introducing? Sorry I’m a ftm and this is all new to me! I did eat peanut butter almost daily while pregnant but not sure if that makes a difference. Also my LO is a little over 8 months. I forgot to discuss it during her 6 month appointment and her next appointment isn’t until 9 months, which I will bring up. Thank you:)

Answer

I mixed it in with oatmeal adding 1/8 of a tsp a day until I reached 1 tsp. Now we do it in oatmeal or on toast or with mashed bananas at least 2 or 3 times a week.

Answer

I just mixed it with his banana purée baby food and he loves it. I give it to him for breakfast often.

Answer

I give it in her spoon and she has fun with it

Answer

I was told peanut butter is a choking hazard because it is thick, so you can dilute it and put it in oatmeal. But what I do is peanut powder in oatmeal. The pediatrician said it's great that way, that the peanut allergy studies were actually conducted with peanut powder. 🤷

Answer

The doctor told me to give my son a tiny amounts of peanut butter daily Like even the size of a fingernail will be fine

Answer

I heated up like half a teaspoon of peanut butter and fed it to my son as a little dessert. He loves it. He didn’t have any reactions. I’ll probably give him a little more each time. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I don’t know about other allergens. 
I’ve given him bites of over medium eggs I’ve cooked, but he hasn’t had much. 
My brother is allergic to a lot of nuts (not including peanuts or peanut butter) so I’ll probably have to introduce those slowly once he has more teeth.

Answer

I actually started with peanut butter on toast and he was more interested in licking the peanut butter than eating 🤦🏻‍♀️ He just isn’t the biggest fan of baby led warning and prefers purées. So, the next time I have it to him I made peanut butter yoghurt (natural Greek yoghurt mixed with 100% peanut butter) and my son  LOVED it!

Answer

We mixed it in oatmeal since the peanut butter itself can be considered a cooking hazard. He now eats it on toast.  We also bought the ready set food 30 day package which introduces egg, pb, and dairy.
